The HydraExpress Agent start-up instantiates a global logger that is used to record events related to general Agent processes and service execution. You can easily configure this default logger or create a custom logger if you wish to log information to locations other than the default log output file. HydraExpress also provides a rolling logger, allowing you to set size limitations on logging files, archive them, and clean them up.

The configuration file for the default logger is <installdir>\conf\logger.xml. The default logger writes to the file <installdir>\logs\agent.log. The default logger can be customized or configured in any way you wish, and the location or name of the log itself can of course be changed as well.

For more information on configuring and customizing loggers, see Chapter 6.
